What are the length, width, and height of a 9.6-meter vehicle?
2 Answers
9.6-meter truck dimensions: The width of the cargo compartment is 2.4 meters, generally with an internal width of 2.35 meters, though some may have an internal width of 2.4 meters. According to national regulations, the height of the cargo from the ground must not exceed 4.5 meters, so the typical loading height is only about 3.0 meters. The vehicle width is generally 2.4 meters. Additional information: 1. The maximum length for standard box trucks or high-barrier trucks is 17.5 meters, though some non-standard vehicles may have cargo compartments up to 20 meters long. For vehicles with a load capacity of 1.5 tons, the compartment dimensions are 4.2 meters in length and 1.8 meters in width. For 2-ton capacity, the dimensions are 4.2 meters in length, 1.8 meters in width, and 1.85 meters in height. 2. For 3-ton capacity, the dimensions are 5.8 meters in length, 2.1 meters in width, and 2.2 meters in height. For 5-ton capacity, the dimensions are 7.4 meters in length, 2.2 meters in width, and 2.2 meters in height.
I've driven quite a few 9.6-meter-long vehicles, mainly for long-distance transportation, such as large trucks and buses. Generally, the width is around 2.5 meters, and the height ranges from 3.2 to 3.5 meters, but the exact figures can vary significantly depending on the model. For example, some trucks can reach up to 3.8 meters in height to carry more cargo, while buses are usually kept around 3.2 meters to avoid urban tunnel restrictions. As for width, too narrow won't fit the cargo, and too wide makes turning difficult, so I always remind beginners to measure road conditions in advance. Dimensions affect safety—for instance, tall vehicles are prone to swaying in strong winds, and wide vehicles need extra space for overtaking. Drivers should practice blind spot recognition more often. I recommend checking the vehicle manual or searching online for specific brands to ensure accuracy, as even small deviations can lead to fines or accidents.
